2010 Nissan Cube S 1.8

Summary:

Never had any issues

Faults:

Nothing at all outside of fluid changes and new tires at 53000km.

General Comments:

The 6 speed manual is a must; we have an automatic Cube in the family as well and it lacks on the highway. Handling is more than adequate for a daily driver, I have never felt out of control even as a somewhat aggressive driver.

Compared to the 2010 xB and Kia Soul, vision is awesome and interior quality is much better than them as well. Seats are comfy and there is so much space; 5 healthy weight adults can honestly fit.

Stock stereo is surprisingly good; I haven't felt the need to change it out like I usually do.

Overall it's been a good A-B and a reliable road trip car (multiple 1000kms+ trips).

2010 Nissan Cube SL 1.8L

Summary:

Very good vehicle, but it is what it is

Faults:

The only repair I have had to have on this vehicle is replacement of the steering control, but it was a fairly costly repair that was not covered under warranty.

General Comments:

My Camaro Z28 was hit head-on while I was stopped making a left turn, and was a total loss. I had only a few days of rental vehicle, which was a Nissan Cube S model.

After driving the rental Cube, I came to appreciate the fuel economy, practicality, and overall driving experience. Compared to the Camaro, it felt a bit like driving a completely enclosed Golf-Cart (but in a good way!).

While searching for vehicles, I came across the Cube SL I drive now, and have not regretted the purchase. No, it does not do 0-60mph in 6.8 seconds, but for what it is, it is a very good vehicle.

The sound system is Rockford Fosgate, and is the best stock car stereo I have ever had in any vehicle. The A/C is quite good even on very hot summer days. I have had back surgery, and the seats are very easy on my spine. The Cube is exceptionally maneuverable, and will park in almost any location with ease, so I can categorically say I am very satisfied.

The only blemishes for the Cube are premature tire wear, and the experience I had making a trip to the store, finding the Cube would not start when I tried to return home, even though the battery was fully charged (turned out the electric steering control unit had died). The repair was just under $1000, and was no longer covered by the warranty.

2010 Nissan Cube Basic with air and stereo 1.8 CVT

Summary:

Very practical

Faults:

Nothing!

Have not even replaced the brake pads yet.

General Comments:

I love it! Rides good, has plenty of room, great air conditioner, handles good, and the MPG can be manipulated with the CVT. The sticker states 27/31, but after putting 10 pound wheels on it and taking the spare out and putting a Fitch fuel catalyst in the tank and a Magnaflo muffler, I can get 40 MPG if I keep the cruise on 58-60, but it goes to 30.5 at 70 mph. I can also get 29 MPG in the city. At 65 I can get 34.5 MPG.

2010 Nissan Cube

Summary:

Cube-tastic!

Faults:

Nothing has gone wrong with this car!

General Comments:

I love, love, LOVE my Cube. We bought it brand new, and have had ZERO problems with it since!! I'm coming up on 60,000 miles and have only had to change the oil. This car is perfect for our family of 4. We are able to put a bike rack on the exterior, and fit 2 snowboards in the storage area easily. Great for every day use, road trips, and just FUN to drive!

It's one of the worst looking cars ever made. Looks like something the Cat in the Hat would drive.

I don't see a point in commenting about some personal preferences.

It looks better than the Juke...

I see the point. It was a brilliant point, very apt, with a wry sensibility to popular culture. There's no need to take it personally.

Hey, wait a minute! Nobody leaves this room!

... are you... the Cat in the Hat?

Still, not as goofy-looking as the Suzuki X-90...
